Default Getting 1440*900 screen resolution to work

Hi All,

I am having a problem getting Win98 to work with my new monitor. It's
an LCD widescreen with a resolution of 1440*900.

My old Kyro-II video card didn't have this resolution, so I went and
bought a new nvidia FX5200 card, but it also doesn't display this
resolution in it's list of options.

People suggest I upgrade to WinXP, but I don't really want the hassles
of upgrading at the moment.

Can Win98 use this resolution, or am I stuck with upgrading to XP?

Hurrah!

After downloading the program powerstrip, it's finally working.

Nice to know you can still get Win98 to do what you need it to do.
Saved him buying XP as well, although he'll probably upgrade in the
near future anyway.
